What is the address of the building in Manhattan that Buddy and his wife lived in? I would like to check it out. I read an article in the NY Daily News that Dion of Dion and the Belmonts took Buddy to dinner in Manhattan to a great Italian restaurant. Buddy had never heard of parmagian cheese...Ha Ha.

@FresnoKid504 it so amazing how we can miss someone we never knew buddy will always be with us as long as we can hear is music..

no one else even comes close, Buddy sounds as good today as he did way back then,

Ocduff, That is a really cool story. Very heart touching. I was born many many years after Buddy Holly died, but I feel as though I somehow miss him.

Waylon states in his autobiography that he was in the apt. in late '58 when Buddy recorded this demo of LTG in one take. Then they went out for a pastrami sandwich afterwards - Waylon had never had pastrami and he hated it! Waylon genuinely loved Buddy - they were brothers in a way. I think most of us only know friendship like that once in our lives - and those guys had it. To me, this is a song of a brother warning a brother - hey, you've got a lot to learn, but it's okay. You'll get there...
The apartment tapes originals are just sooo much better than the later over dubbed versions. You're actually there!! Kinda hard to imagine a world that never had a Buddy Holley. The veneer in his voice is instantly recognisable, totally unique and absolutely without a peer. Often emulated but still not surpassed.

Only 22 when he died and so many timeless songs. Incredibly talented.
